Cleaner fish
What are they?
Where do they live?
They mainly live on coral reefs in the Indian Ocean and Pacific Ocean. They are less common in freshwater habitats than in marine habitats.
Cleaner fish are fish that provide a service to other fish species by removing dead skin and ectoparasites.
What do they eat?
REVENUE
cleaner fish feed on the mucus and tissue of the host fish (which are usually larger than themselves) as these food sources have greater nutritional value.
